Has anyone delt with B and H for. Price match? There is something I am asking them to match a price on because I love doing business with them and the other place is about 50 miles from my house but if I have to I will drive there to save money. The got my sales add from them last week but I have not heard anything from them except it went to the price department I was wondering how long it takes. Thanks

I guess it would be possible to find someone to beat their price but I would make sure its "apples to apples" Keep in mind that items that are gray market may not be listed as such by some less than steller retailers.
I don't think you will find anyone to beat their customer service though and that may be worth more than a few dollars saved.

I have had price matches from B&H, but they may only price match their major competitors. I would call customer service and ask them.

What are you trying to price match? With cameras and lenses the prices are, for the most part, set by the manufacturers. All the authorized dealers will have near identical prices. If someone is offering a significantly lower price on such an item then I suggest you check carefully to see what is actually being offered.

I was there yesterday. They are the best service wise, pretty close price wise and worth the ride in.

Well b and h would not match the price and now. The offer is off so I missed out on a good price next time I will just buy it when I see it. B and H was nice but took to long to reply so it is my loss.

Why don't you stop complaining and get on the phone
or Internet and contact B&H and they may still honor
the product you want.
They are an excellent company to deal with.

I've had them price match and then one time they said they couldn't. I'd call again.

I have never had a problem with B&H. I primarily purchase from Adorama, B&H, Calmeta, and then (and only then) local providers. If I need something fast, then I will probably go to a local store if they have it before ordering from one of the others and paying for next day freight charges. Of course, living in Florida limits my local usage to 3 local stores and then Best Buy which I would only use as an absolutely last resort (assuming they had the product, which is highly unlikely or knew anything about it). As far as price match, Adorama often beats prices of B&H and others by charging the same and adding other 3rd party items that you may or may not use anyway. B&H, typically has the product by it's self. However, be away that many items prices are controlled by the maker and the only way to get around them is by adding 3rd party items with high markups for slightly higher price than the list. This is a common way to get around manufacturers that have set base prices.

Bhp is the best! They deal honestly and stand behind their merchandise.
Good company.
